coolest makeup nooks and spaces to get inspired cover

Most of us do skin care and hair care, and if you also do makeup, you may want to have a lovely makeup nook for these things. It can be located in a bathroom, bedroom or closet or wherever else you enjoy taking care of yourself. Let’s consider how to organize one.

What Style To Choose For A Makeup Nook?

A makeup nook usually continues the style of the room where it’s located but of course you can add a bit of glam if you want. It can be anything, from minimalist to vintage, and you may highlight it with decor, artworks, plants or other pieces. For example, you can make an accent floral wall, add some glam pendant lamps, mirrors and a gallery wall to highlight the space and make it more inspiring.

What Colors To Choose For A Makeup Nook?

Continue with the colors of the room or go for the same style but different shades to accent this space. These are often pastels like pink and lilac shades, red or metallics like gold and silver but of course you can skip this idea and stick to the colors you used for room decor – it depends on your wish, whether you want a seamless nook or an accented one.

What Should A Makeup Nook Include?

A makeup nook is usually a vanity, a chair and some storage plus lights and lamps. The vanity can be very different – large and with storage space, small with some drawers, floating or wall-mounted to save some space. Your chair should be soft and cozy and provide enough comfort for getting makeup, hair and whatever else you will do here. Mirrors are also a must for a makeup nook – get several ones including a lit up mirror and enlarging mirrors. Take care to have at least a bit of storage space – if you have lots of stuff, go for compartments and drawers or shelves, if not, then some sheer organizers are your choice, and they can be also inserted into drawers and storage units you already have. All of these items can be easily DIYed from IKEA items or bought ready. Finally, make sure you have enough light here – it’s very important, and it’s better to have both natural light and artificial for different types of makeup. Even if you have a lit up mirror, that might be not enough, so get some pendant or table lamps of your choice. Add decor to create a mood – potted plants, lovely artworks and even your favorite shoes on display. Get inspired!
